𒊪

U+122AA "𒊪" Cuneiform Sign Sal Lagab Times Ash2 is a specific glyph from the cuneiform script, one of the earliest known writing systems developed in ancient Mesopotamia. This character represents a complex logographic or syllabic sign composed by combining the elements SAL (often denoting a woman or feminine concept), LAGAB (a sign meaning an enclosed space or block), and ASH2 (a phonetic or determinative component), with "times" indicating that these signs are overlaid or compounded to form a single unit. Found in the Sumero Akkadian cuneiform repertoire, this sign would have been inscribed on clay tablets using a wedge shaped stylus, and it appears in economic, administrative, or lexical texts from the third millennium BCE onward, contributing to the rich tapestry of ancient Near Eastern writing and language.
